Hey, did you hear about…

Wow, listen to what so-and-so said …

You’re not going to believe this, but…

And it goes on and on and on.

How many of us when we’re listening to the radio (NPR, Limbaugh, whomever) or watching the boob-tube take at face value what the media is telling us? Don’t most of us believe what we hear when it comes to the news? Well, crap, and I do mean crap. Where’s their empirical data, where’s the facts, man, where’s the stats?

How about when we are watching tv and those “wonderful” commercials come on - yes, I hate them as much as you do. I mean, how can everyone have the best goomer, the best whatsit, the best thingamajig? Somebody’s gotta be lying through their teeth! New and improved!?!? Not on your life.

If you took the time to read the gudielines set down by the FCC for advertising, your jaw would hit the floor. The advertisers can couch their phrasing in such a way that what you think they said is not actually what they mean, and what you think they said that you thought you heard and what you think they’re promising is not what they said that you thought they said. Huh? They talk just like attorneys and politicians, —- don’t get me started.

Okay. So what’s the purpose of this article?

Well…

For those of you that have been around since the inception of this site (2004), why are you still hanging around? What keeps you coming back? (Rhetorical question)

And to you newbies, and god love ya’, why are you here? How did you get here? Who told you to come? Whazzz up?

All of you know why you are here.

You keep returning (and thanking you isn’t enough), you email your friends about this site, you subscribe to the newsletter, and you can’t wait for another idea or tip that will put you over the top.

And why is FreeTrafficTip one of the best (I think it’s the best) sites which deals with free, traffic, tips, seo, blogging, (don’t make me go on) and so forth?

There’s only one answer - and that’s Tinu’s dedication and hard work for all these years, for all of you. If you knew/know her, you would know that that’s the pure honest to god’s truth. And, I also want to thank you for accepting Cindy and me. We appreciate all the comments and emails. And if you believe just this one thing - we all, all three of us will always look out after you. Period. No bull___.

Lesson for today - well, you already got it. So get it. And “git ‘er dun”.

The Big “Mo”
